Season 6 - Ep. 118 Love is Hell with guest Gwenda Bond

In this episode, we talk to Gwenda Bond, a New York Times best-selling author whose scope of work includes middle grade and young adult fiction, most with definitive fantasy elements. Her most recent book published this past fall, however, is her very first adult rom-com, a paranormal romance titled NOT YOUR AVERAGE HOT GUY, that involves the son of Satan. An anticipated sequel is due to hit bookstores in April 2022.

Gwenda has vast experience in the literary world; she has published over 10 books, has been a writer for Publisher’s Weekly magazine, collaborated to write a serial podcast, and been chosen by the Duffer brothers, creators of the mega-hit Netflix series "Stranger Things", to write a novel that explores what Eleven’s mother’s story.

The thing that unites all these pieces is simple; it’s definitely not boring. Gwenda revels in the wacky and weird, and she was a ton of fun to chat with this week.
